Postai Advice
For Xmas Mailing
Another Christmas brings on
the annual rush of mailings in
greeting cards, letters and par-
cels. It is a rush time for all
and especially the postal staff.
The mailing public can assist at
this busiest season by following
the suggestions listed below.
For greeting cards, separate
local delivery letters from out-
of-town deliveries, and tie them
in separate bundles, mail them
in this manner at street letter
boxes or at the Post Office,
where you will note provision
has been made for separate
mailings.
For important first class mail,
if quantity warrants, it too,
could be tied in bundles, afiZr-
patrons are requested, if mail-
ing at the Post Office, to hand
it in at the general delivery
wicket.
Regarding rates, greeting
cards with no more than five
written words and in unsealed
envelopes, will require 2c post-
age, for third class handling. If
mailed in sealed envelopes, the
usual letter rate of Sc applies,
and this mail will receive first
class handling, the same as im-
portant business mail.
For distant points, air mail
will speed delivery of all mail
at better than first class hand-
ling rate. Deadline dates for a
guaranteed Christmas delivery
have been published on the post
office notice boaxd• for the past
month, and deliveries for Great
Britain, Europe, etc., are now
Past; however, air mail will still
arrive for Christmas if posted
as follows:
Forletters to Great Britain by
Dec. 16; for Europe by Dec. 14;
for parcels td Great Britain,
Dec. 14, for Europe by Dec. 12.
For deliveries in Canada and
the United States, folders have
been distributed to all patrons
of the Post Office and more are
available on inquiry. For lo-
cal delivery, mail before Dec.
17. If posted later, the Post
Office can only do its best.
Again patrons are reminded
that parcels should be securely
packed, wrapped and tied, ad-
dressed plainly and properly,
and on all mail show a return
address.

Engine Reassures Council;
Sewage Job Over by Christmas
Seaforth Councillors were re-
assured at a special meeting of
Council, held Monday evening,
as to the capacity of B.C. Con-
struction to complete the sewer
contract which the company
holds from the !Own. Meeting
with the council was E. 0. Raw-
son, representing the town's
consulting engineers, Reid and
Associates. of Toronto. Mr.
Rawson told council that there.
was no reason why the company
could not complete the installa-
tion of sewers in Seaforth be-
fore Christmas.
The meeting was called to
consider action that might be
taken as a result of doubts that
existed as to the capacity of
the company to complete the
work. No work had been done
for several days last week,
Mayor McMaster told council,
and on Friday steps had been
taken to determine just what
the situation was. Instructions
had been issued to the consult-
ing engineer to make a com-
plete investigation, and it was
to report the results of ,the in -
vestigation that Mr. Rawson out had existed almost from the
was attending the meeting, the
Mayor said.
Concern as to the progress of
the contract has been express-
ed over a period of the past
couple of months. At each
council meeting the matter was
raised, and it was indicated the
wet weather was contributing
to the difficulies. On each oc-
casion complaints were regis-
tered with the contractor and
the consulting engineer.
While the contract provides
that not more than 400 feet ,of
trench be opened at one time, it
was reported that open trench
existed at various points. In
addition, roads that had been
torn up, were impassable weeks
later.
Mr. Rawson told council the
situation looked serious Friday
but that upon investigation
things were found to be in bet-
ter shape than he had anticipat-
ed. He offered no explanation
as to why the consultants had
not taken steps to correct the
situation that council pointed

commencement of work. • I
Councillor Christie said work
was under way. on grading • and
gravelling the lane east of Main
St., and he thought if work'.
continued the lane could be op-
en to traffic in a couple ' of
days.
Pointing out colde.r_weather
would be helpful, Mr. 'Rawson
recommended the contractor be
permitted to finish his centract.
He said he had discussed it with
K. Bentz, of B.C. Construction,
and Mr. Bentz had promised he
would personally supervise the
work. He was obtaining addi-
tional men and it was felt there
would be no further difficulty.
Councillor H. H. Leslie,
chairman of the sewage com-
mittee, agreed it would be un-
reasonable to take steps to re-
lieve the contractor of the job,
I since it was so nearly fninshed
providing, of course, that the
town engineers were agreed the
company could do the work
properly.
Necessity of repairing Main
Street was stressed by Reeve N.
Scoins, who mentioned °Main
St. South, Mr. Rawson sug-
gested final work on the streets
should wait until spring, since
there would be much settling.
He said the contract completion
date was iviarcn next year.
Special care is to be used in
pouring cement in cold weather,
and the contractor agreed to
heat gravel and water and use
salt in the mix, Mr. Rawson
said. He said completed pours
should be covered with straw
or manure.
In answer to a question from
Councillor Crich, he said work
at the disposal plant was pro-
gressing satisfactorily. and it
could be finished in t w o
months.
Congratulating Colin llor
Crich on the job that had been
done on Christmas decorations,
council agreed on two addition-
al strings of lights on the Town
Hall.
On Sunday afternoon 3 boys
